The Skittle Exchange
Teaching Business Models Through Trading
A digital version of the classic classroom Skittles-trading game. Students swap colored skittles to corner a market while a secret "Trade Commissioner" fee quietly skims every trade — a hands-on lesson in hidden fees and how markets really work. Teachers run it from any browser: live trade ledger, color-champion leaderboards, per-class rosters, a session timer, and printable lesson guides. Based on the classroom game created by Aaron Dinin.

Kids trade colored skittles trying to collect the most of one color. What they don't notice: a "Trade Commissioner" skims a fee off every single trade. The reveal at the end — how much the house quietly took — is the lesson. Teachers run it all from a browser: roster, fees, timer, live ledger, leaderboard, printable guides. The game isn't mine — it's Aaron Dinin's classroom lesson. I just built the digital version so it runs itself. Hopefully there's another teacher who can find this useful!
